Poignant and moving, this book touches on the ways grief can exacerbate addiction and self destructive patterns. It paints a complex familial dynamic and examines how family can both help and hinder you.
The character work in this book is really what kept me reading. Each sister is distinct and well rounded and has a clear voice. Their relationships are messy and they are distressingly human.
